1 And the limit of the land marked out for the children of Joseph went out from Jordan at Jericho, at the waters of Jericho on the east, in the waste land, going up from Jericho through the hill-country to Beth-el;

2 And it goes out from Beth-el to Luz, and on as far as the limit of the Archites to Ataroth;

3 And it goes down to the west to the limit of the Japhletites, to the limit of Beth-horon the lower, as far as Gezer; ending at the sea.

4 And the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their heritage.

5 And the limit of the land of the children of Ephraim by their families was marked out in this way: the limit of their heritage to the east was Ataroth-addar, to Beth-horon the higher;

6 The line goes out to the west at Michmethath on the north; then turning to the east to Taanath-shiloh, going past it on the east of Janoah;

7 And from Janoah down to Ataroth, and to Naarah, and touching Jericho, it goes on to Jordan.

8 From Tappuah the line goes on to the west to the river of Kanah; ending at the sea. This is the heritage of the children of Ephraim by their families;

9 Together with the towns marked out for the children of Ephraim in the heritage of Manasseh, all the towns with their unwalled places.

10 And the Canaanites who were living in Gezer were not forced out; but the Canaanites have been living among Ephraim, to this day, as servants, doing forced work.

1 约瑟的子孙抽签所得的地业， 是从靠近耶利哥的约旦河起， 到耶利哥东边的水泉， 经过从耶利哥上去的旷野， 进到在山地的伯特利；

2 又从伯特利到路斯， 经过亚基人的境界亚他绿，

3 又向西下到押利提人的境界， 去到下伯．和仑和基色的境界， 直通到海。

4 约瑟的儿子玛拿西和以法莲， 也得了他们的产业。

5 以下是以法莲人按着家族所得的境界： 他们的产业在东方的疆界， 是亚他绿．亚达， 直到上伯．和仑。

6 向西伸展到北面的密米他， 又向东绕到他纳．示罗， 经过雅挪哈的东边；

7 从雅挪哈下到亚他绿， 又到拿拉， 和耶利哥接壤， 伸展到约旦河；

8 又从他普亚向西行， 到加拿河， 直通到海； 这就是以法莲支派按着家族所得的产业。

9 此外在玛拿西人的产业中， 还有些城镇分给以法莲人的， 这些城镇都包括属于它们的村庄在内。

10 可是他们没有把住在基色的迦南人赶走， 于是迦南人住在以法莲中间， 直到今日， 成了作苦工的奴仆。
